I might be mistaken, but if you take you pv-ops sources, you should be able to 
build a Debian based dom0 based kernel after installing the kernel-package ... 
for 10.04 this would be http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/kernel-package

And then 
fakeroot /usr/bin/make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version=-xen kernel_image 
kernel_headers


By the way there has been some discussions on this.... maybe not a great 
example (but one that comes up at the top of a quick search) would be: 
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=954838

I like the guide provided at: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1489187
To help guide one through what is needed to compile a kernel with the possibly 
of added patches on vanilla kernel sources.
